kennedy on the supreme court and that will become number one with a bullet on the hit parade for the remainder of the summer. >> let me ask you about the process, go back to appropriations for a second. before the break you were talking about your podcast about the package that passed the house and senate. do you see the process this year of spending bills any better than prior years? any semblance of regular order? david: there is some semblance of regular order. particularly in the senate, when the senate passed that so-called minibus. it was, i don't have the report card in front of me, but i think it was the first time they passed a standalone appropriations bill in several years. so they are trying to show the public and lobbyists they can do the reaching business of governing. will actually help when the big end of september drama happens, which is almost surely because the more progress they have on these appropriation bills, the less there is to fight about. meantime, they, the republican majority, is at least showing some voters they can do some of the routine business of go

let's start with the outgoing justice anthony kennedy prayed for 30 years, kennedy, he's accumulated what is a very mixed track record, nominated by ronald reagan in 1988, many have referred to him as the courts swing justice. he saved roe vs. wade from being overturned. he upheld the use of affirmative action, extend legal rights to foreign terrorists at gitmo, but kennedy also voted to kill obamacare, preserve second amendment rights and most recently, he voted to uphold the president's travel ban. kind of weird because he never had a judicial philosophy that he seemed to do it here too, like justice thomas or justice scalia or justice alito. now with president trump poised to nominate what he has said he will do in the campaign, a strict originalist, to replace a very unproductive but kennedy, democrats are now sharpening their spears, just like they did back in 1987. let's go down memory lane. before reagan nominated anthony kennedy to the supreme court, he did tap somebody who was a judicial genius. he tapped a strict constitutional originalist. his name was george robert ford.

anthony kennedy as you said was mostly with the conservatives. but on a couple of key issues, most notably abortion rights, he was the vote that was keeping roe v. wade the law of the land. that is done. roe v. wade will be overturned and there is no doubt that the top priority of the people advising president bush -- president trump in this nomination is to pick someone that will overturn row v. wade and the states will start passing bills to ban abortion altogether and i guarantee you in the next year the supreme court will have cases which will challenge row v. wade and i think it is doomed and abortion will be illegal in a significant chunk of this country in 18 months. >> and there is nothing that democrats can do about it, laura? >> well that is partly true in terms of the korcongressional ll and all politics are local and local voting is important to decide who will be in office to do that. but i do agree it is going to change the partisan view point of the supreme court but there is still a lot of steps that have to go in order to get a c
